Google delays some Nexus 4 orders by up to three weeks after 'overwhelming demand' | The Verge

Quote:

Google's new Nexus 4 phones were expected to ship today, but some people are being informed that they won't be arriving for quite some time. We've received emails informing users that "due to overwhelming demand," their Nexus 4 is on backorder and is expected to ship within three weeks. It's possible to cancel the order, but since the Nexus 4 is currently sold out on Google Play with no clear indication on when it'll be coming back, you'll want to either start looking for a T-Mobile store or resign yourself to waiting. To make up for the inconvenience, Google says it will waive shipping charges on the phone when it's finally sent out. The Nexus 7, released earlier this year, also sold out quickly, but so far the Nexus 4 has been particularly difficult to buy. That could be because of demand, or just because Google didn't produce a particularly big first run of its new flagship device.

So much for getting it this year. If even the first early orders are gonna be backordered for 3 weeks new stock will be at least that long as a minimum.

IMHO they should keep taking online backorders.

Booohyaaaah!

honestly these fleabay/scamlist profiteers don't look so bad now that even T-mobile is selling at a $150 premium. :rukidding:

Same here. Surprisingly the service used was UPS Standard, meaning it won't be here until next week. One would expect UPS Express since the shipping cost was almost $20.

Google is pulling a eBay seller tactic. Cheap product cost but rape you on the shipping

Incidentally, they're shipping from Louisville, Kentucky.
